The Facebook page, “On the Road in West Virginia: Our 55 Counties,” is a video documentary on the history and culture of every West Virginia county in under 10 minutes. This documentary is Produced and narrated by Clarksburg’s Wayne Worth.

“Initially my mission of this project was to go to every county every other Sunday with a couple of my friends who wanted to visit every county and provide our fellow West Virginia neighbors with a short video about the place they call love and call home,” said Worth. “After posting the first county (Hancock County) on the Facebook page and receiving 97,000 views and 1,800 shares, I knew that this project meant so much more to others! So now, I take the project a little more seriously because I see how (through some of the comments I receive after posting a video) of how people are discovering and embracing their connection to the place they love and call home.”

Already past five journeys, Worth said he’s doing this as a gift to a state he’s loved and embraced since his adoption at age 11.

“To me, when I see people develop a restored love and pride for their community and county, and begin to connect with the history and values that they hold true and near and dear to their hearts, reinforces my love and pride for our state and reminds me of the gifts that West Virginia provided to my life,” said Worth.
